Former Baylor Players Speak Out Against Kim Mulkey’s Silence on Brittney Griner

Two ex-Baylor women’s basketball players who played under Kim Mulkey spoke out against the LSU coach on Monday after she opted not to answer a question regarding her former player, detained WNBA star Brittney Griner.

Mulkey, Baylor’s coach from 2001 to 2021, was asked earlier in the day to comment on Griner’s ongoing detainment in Russia during LSU’s media day. Despite having an estranged relationship with the former Baylor star, the Hall of Famer found great success coaching the Griner-led Lady Bears from 2009 to 2013, tallying a combined 135–15 record—including a 40-0 run to the national title in 2012.
